Grappa Nonino il Merlot – Primary product : the pomace, collected when it is fresh and soft, is selected from Merlot grapes from dedicated production zones.

Fermentation : under vacuum in stainless-steel tanks at controlled temperature, immediately followed by distillation in order to avoid harmful secondary fermentations.

Resting : from six months to a year in stainless steel tanks.

Distillation : Batch method with head and tail removal, in particular and exclusive copper steam stills renewed by Benito Nonino. Distillation takes place very slowly to allow the volatile components, responsible of the fragrances, a proper evaporation and the consequent condensation preserving the precious organoleptic characteristics of vine variety chosen.
